Not true. Greyhounds are the laziest dogs on the planet. A couple of 30-45 minute on-lead walks a day, and a 90-second play with his toys is plenty for ours. He sleeps the rest of the day. And that's very typical of the breed. You don't get a much more low-maintenance dog than a greyhound.
Love le Tour. I'm going to Rotterdam next Saturday for the prologue, and then down to the Pyrenees a couple of weeks later to catch a few of the mountain stages. Mr B&W Seagull and I will be camping in a town at the foot of the Col de Tourmalet, so will be in prime position for both the stages...
Gave up at about 1am. I'd hoped to stay awake for the Pavilion result, which was reckoned at the time to come in around 3am. Woke at 7am to discover the result had been declared only an hour earlier...
A 'production error' means the editor can blame a member of staff - when, in fact, the editor should be reading and approving every single word printed in their magazine.
Saw The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo last night. Pretty good as book adaptations go. The soundtrack isn't great and rather distracting, but overall I'd recommend.
Brilliant - I didn't know the second series was being shown so soon. I thought the first series was excellent, and a really good portrayal of a flawed human being.
Cut the puff pastry into rectangles of about 10x15cm or so (if it's ready-rolled). Lightly score a rectangle about 2cm in from the edges, but don't cut right through.
Slice some courgettes, and lightly fry with some crushed garlic until soft.
Slice some feta or halloumi cheese, and lay in...
